Step 1: Connect via SSH

Now connect your raspberry pi to home router using a Ethernet cable. the ada-fruit image comes with SSH enabled so you can connect via SSH immediately.

now you should try to open a SSH session via putty to raspberrypi.local or the speccific IP address( if you have ur HDMI connected it should be there on you screen, or go to ur router config page(usually 192.168.0.1) and check for raspberry pi under DHCP). you can log in to the raspberry pi with user name :pi and password :raspberry.

Step 2: Setting up you rasberry pi

once you have a new installation there are a few things you should do to get things going, that includes expanding your root file system to fit the entire memory card and changing the user name and pasword. executingsudo raspi-config
will take to to the config page where you can configure your PI.

I'm having problems transferring html files. I got all the way through restarting apache (after changing AllowOverride None to AllowOverride ALL). When I tried the "sudo chmod 777 /www" command (after changing the directory to /var/), however, it gave me the response "chmod: cannot access '/www': No such file or directory." I installed WinSCP and found the www folder and I confirmed that the default site displays properly. When I try to transfer files it says "Permission denied."

when you are trying to access your website from the internet, check you internet IP address using google "what is my ip"(after you have setup port forwarding). you lan ip four computer is different from your WAN ip address of your router. To access your website make sure you enter the wan IP.

Hi, yes you should he storing the index.html in /var/www/ . Some routers have no-ip service that you can enable from your router admin page. also make sure you have edited apache config file to allow all IP, but default the server might only allow you local lan to access the website

Hi! Thanks for the tutorial, but I am still running into a few hurdles. I followed every step. Just to make sure, I am supposed to upload my index.html file to /var/www right? I do have a PID running, but if I try to go to my website, it only shows "400 bad request". Do you think you could help me?

I ended up doing a different thing. Where I set up no ip on my router and then set up port forwarding (also on my router) in conjuction with my RP. Let me know if you need help. I also tried using pagekite but that can get quite expensive depending on traffic. Even though I would definitely recommend it if I was creating a test server or something... But I am using my server as a backup site which obviously uses a lot of traffic... Hope that helps...

Hey! Nice and easy to follow tutorial! But even tho I double checked every step, I still cant reach my content.

Calling the Pi's Local IP through an other device's browser displays the index.html in the /var/www folder properly, but using either the global ip or the no-ip.org domain results in a network timeout error.

- noip2 process is running (pid, current global ip and noip-domain is shown)

- 000-defaults file is edited ("None" to "ALL" - also checked "All")

- No-IP Website show pi's currend global IP and No-IP Domain aligned

- Port-Forward for Ports 80 and 21 for the Pi's local IP are enabled

Any further advice?! Thanks in advance Best regards and keep up the intuitive tutorials

I am having the same problem I have gone through another tutorial too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2019600 which uses PageKite rather than No-ip but pagekite is really expensive! Please let me know if you find a solution!

Jup I contacted my IPS.. It's because im using global IPv6 adresses with Dual-Stack Lite. Therefore my devices do not get a global IPv4 adress to enable Port Forwarding... They offered me to activate the IPv4 (real Dual-Stack) for an additioal monthly fee...

Isn't there any way to achieve the same goal with IPv6 enabled on the Raspberry?! (Except Portmapping expensive services)

Excellent tutorial! Now i would like to get some security to prevent some hacking activity. Where i can find some info about this? I thinks is installing SSL or something like that. Do u know any info about this? Thanks!

hey, I am trying to run adafruit on my raspbbery but this is not respond. Actually I download adafruit and used win32disk to write in in my SD card. Then I put SD card in raspberry pi but its not respond. Why? Thank you very much please help me

I had the same problem. It is the ram on the Pi. The adafruit image requires a Pi that does not have HYNIX ram. You can try to simply run any debian image for the Pi, since it has the enable SSH option during first startup and setup. Worked for me.

Clear & concise instructions. I've previously tried to get my Raspberry Pi set up as a web server by following instructions I've found in a book I purchased and a different web site, but none ever worked. This one works great, thanks!

u can Host most .php and HTML(and CSS) files, but if you are using functionality like cgi- , or curl you will have to add those modules too, to your installation. Yes basic java should work since it runs off your browser.
